Chicago Bulls at Miami Heat
· National Basketball AssociationHerro the hero for Heat, who beat Bulls 110-105 in overtime
Tyler Herro came through.
"I don't shy away from taking the big shot," Herro said.
That's obvious.
The 19-year-old made three 3-pointers in overtime, plus another with 7.1 seconds left in regulation just to help Miami get into the extra session. Of his five field goals in the final 6 minutes, four of them were assisted by Jimmy Butler.
Butler scored 23 points for the Heat, going 17 for 21 from the foul line. Bam Adebayo had 21 points, 13 rebounds and six assists for Miami, which also got 18 from Kendrick Nunn.
Lauri Markkanen had 13 of his team-high 22 points in the third quarter for the Bulls, who got 18 from Zach LaVine and 16 from Kris Dunn. Markkanen missed a potentially game-tying corner 3-pointer with about 1.5 seconds left in overtime, Coby White fouled Herro on the rebound, and Miami's first-round draft pick made a pair of free throws to seal the win.
"I liked the way we fought," Bulls coach Jim Boylen said. "I liked the way we competed. I thought we played our (butt) off."
The Bulls fell to 1-4 in games decided by five points or less.
It was tied at 97-97 after regulation, after the lead changed hands four times in the final 84 seconds.
From there, Herro took over. He had 11 of Miami's 13 OT points; the other two were from Nunn, another rookie.
"Definitely frustrated to lose. But we played well," Dunn said. "A lot of guys played well. I thought we did the right things to put us in position to win the game. We just didn't come up with the victory."
TIP-INS
Bulls: Chicago led by as many as 11 and held Miami without a field goal for the first 5:55 of the fourth quarter. ... Thaddeus Young, who missed Friday's loss to Golden State for personal reasons, was back with the Bulls and played off their bench. ... Chandler Hutchison (right shoulder sprain) missed his fifth consecutive game, but is improving. "Every day his shoulder gets less sore, more loose," Boylen said.
FOR STARTERS
Miami has played 23 times this season and has yet to be beaten in consecutive games. That's a first in franchise history.
QUICK WORK
Bulls backup Daniel Gafford committed three fouls in an 83-second span of the first quarter, earning him a quick trip back to the bench. He checked in with 3:53 left, committed his first with 3:35 left, his second with 3:10 left and the third with 2:12 remaining.
UP NEXT
Bulls: Host Toronto on Monday, starting a four-game homestand.
Heat: Host Atlanta on Tuesday, the third game in this four-game homestand.
